Late Week Musings - It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

For me, the stretch between December 24th and January 1st is the most wonderful time of the year. Sure, there are the holidays themselves - having grown up Catholic, Christmas will always hold a special place in my heart, and New Year’s is a chance to reflect on the past year and look forward to the new one. Not to mention Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and a whole host of other holidays in December and January.

I always take advantage of the slew of holidays by taking a full on winter break. This year, including weekends, that break will stretch from Saturday, December 22nd, all the way to Tuesday, January 1st, 11 days off in a row.
